    Dean Koontz - Life Expectancy
    Dean Koontz-dean-koontz-life-expectancy.jpg
    Jimmy Tock has a strange destiny thrust upon him. His dying grandfather prophesies five dark days in his grandsons life - days where Jimmy will face terror and violence, malice and perversion.

    The moment his grandfather dies, Jimmy is born.

    A gripping book - which I just couldn't put down, although a chilling and scary book, Dean Koontz put a lot of humour in this book and I found myself laughing at some points. I couldn't wait to turn the page to see what next was going to happen.

    Dean Koontz - Fear Nothing
    Dean Koontz-dean-koontz-fear-nothing.jpg
    Christopher Snow is athletic, hansom, intelligent, romantic and funny, but he lives with an affliction where he can only come out at night.

    With his mother dead and his father dying, on his death bed tells Christopher to Fear Nothing.

    As I read through this book, I realised there were people who were allergic to the sun and light and their bodies burn, living by candle light and having a night life was horrible, but this book is only based over a couple of days and Dean Koontz fills it so well, page by page gripping story of death and intrigue.

    Dean Koontz - Lightening
    Dean Koontz-dean-koontz-lightening.jpg
    A storm strikes on the night Laura Shane is born in 1955, and there is a strangeness about the weather that people will remember for years.

    Throughout her childhood, ever more terrifying trouble beset her, but with increasing courage, she finds the strength to prevail - even without the intervention of the stranger.

    Lightening strikes and shatters her world.

    Another fantastic book, time travel, shooting, guns, scientists, fostered, children's homes, murder and intrigue. I just couldn't put the book down.

    Yes I can read one book a day :)

    Do a report on one that you've read then Noel so we can build up a good book report for other people to read and decide whether to try one of his books.

    Dean Koontz - The Taking
    Dean Koontz-dean-koontz-taking.jpg
    On the morning that will mark the end of the world they have known .....

    Molly and Neil Sloan wake to find an eerily luminous downpour drenching their small Californian mountain town. As the rain continues to fall, TV pictures relay disturbing news of extreme weather phenomena across the globe.

    Danger is approaching in the night .. disappearances and murder. I don't know what it is about Dean Koontz books, but I just hate putting them down, once I start I have to finish it that day.

    Once I read this book (without giving too much away) Armageddon and the horrors in it - really made me think, if this would be one way the earth would be cleansed.
